If anyone doesn't see themselves using their voucher allocation given the sparse selection: my eB 3500 for your R500 The Pro Shop voucher.

Regarding 40% off Checkers vouchers. I don't get why people are after them so badly. By using the voucher, aren't you eliminating the opportunity to earn 15% back by using your card?? (considering you stay within the limits). Wouldn't it make more sense to buy vouchers for places that don't give any extra eBucks benefits? Am I missing something here?

In this case, say for this month I'm past R2000 or R3000 (for private and under).
Then can use this voucher.

Or if you saving up for a big purchase (furniture etc) then can pay the max ebucks-able-amount via card then the rest with the vouchers.

And 40> 15%.

Don't think most would like to use ebucks at 1:1

Yes this. Also I normally use Dischem vouchers for toiletries and detergents and put the money saved into a savings account. Checkers vouchers just gives me better variety of products

Unfortunately, every time Checkers vouchers are available some people try every possible way to abuse the vouchers for own gain. From paying accounts to buying from Takealot with the vouchers.

Then they blame Checkers and FNB for not closing the loopholes and act all surprised that it's not available any more.

To order additional card, can this be done online? When I phoned the call centre they said I need to go in branch and fill in a form to request 'additional user'. What's the difference between ordering online and requesting 'additional user'? This card will be for my SO

Not necessary to go in branch. Can do it on the application.

The place where it says Embossed Name can put your SO's name.

Would anyone mind swapping R1000 of Dis-Chem vouchers for a R1000 online Dis-Chem voucher?

If you email Dischem (online(at)dischem.co.za) with your wicode, they will convert it for you to an online code. It does take some time as they need to verify that the code is still valid....

So do paying QR codes with the FNB app still count as online?

Or does it count as an internal transaction somehow?

In addition, not everyone lives close to a Dis-Chem.

Are you required to input CVV?

If not, I think it should count as in-store spend.
Has anyone used it on the forum?
